This Quartz XD6 disc brake lock is the version without an alarm, although the Quartz XD6 still presents any potential thief with quite the challenge. Stainless steel, a tempered locking pin and a double locking system, tested at freezing temperatures, saw and drill-resistant and with a unique design – Oxford knows what it’s doing.
One of three supplied safety keys is enough to open and close the locking pin.
The supplied minder cable (reminder cable, memory cable) is very simple to use: you attach one loop together with the lock and you place the other one around the clip-on or handle of your motorcycle or scooter. That way, you’ll never forget to remove the disc brake lock before taking off.
This disc brake lock places some real weight in the scale, which it should. Nevertheless, it can be stored easily underneath most saddles.
Technical specifications:
- 6-mm locking pin
- 78 mm x 56 mm
- Locking pin made from special tempered steel
- This lock is delivered with three keys
- Delivered with roll-up minder cable, reminding you to remove the lock before taking off
Tip from the RAD house: make it a habit to always mount your disc brake lock to your front wheel. That’s where the potential thief will spot it first (which is fine, a lock always has a dissuasive effect) and there’s the best chance that you see it before leaving.
You wouldn’t be the first to pay for a swift departure with a distorted disc brake or mudguard.
